Storm damage roof report in Stokenchurch
After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from ground level or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. If you’ve noticed damaged ridges and hips and lead lifted at abutments, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In older homes around places like Stokenchurch, the underlay may be old bitumen felt, or there may be none at all. Once the slates or tiles let water past, there is little to stop it reaching the ceiling. Whether it’s long-term wear or recent damage makes a difference to what happens next. Wet battens and insulation in the loft are often the first clue.
Report times depend on the survey you book: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

What else we do in Stokenchurch
Prices for storm damage roof reports in Stokenchurch
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- Height and safe access
- House, block, shop or office
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Roof area
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
Getting in touch
Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:
- Anything about access we should know
- What made you get in touch
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- When you need the report by
Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from the ground or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To get started, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in Stokenchurch book surveys as well as homeowners. A written report with photos gives you a clear record of the roof.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photographs included.
What happens on the day
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Being in a smaller place like Stokenchurch doesn’t change how the visit works: we look from the ground, from windows, from the loft and from the roof where it is safe. It is useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there’s access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at

Leaks and storm damage in Stokenchurch
The wider area around Stokenchurch has a long history of building, with West Wycombe Park House about 4.2 miles east. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Stokenchurch Methodist Church, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stokenchurch Primary School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you own a rental within reach of Saunderton station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Before and after the survey
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They apply to most roofs:
- Photograph damage inside the house too
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
The report is emailed to you, and you decide what to send to your insurer. We don’t deal with the insurer on your behalf.
Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Blocked drainage can add water damage to wind damage.
Common questions in Stokenchurch

We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Is my home in Stokenchurch listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when you book.

Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but your policy sets the actual test.

Why act early in Stokenchurch
